"The suit stems from multiple alleged attacks on Ngo in Portland during 2019"
How it's alleged if it can be proven(and is) true? Antifa have assaulted him and even went after him in hospital after he hospitalized because of their previous attack 86.124.122.29 (talk) 17:59, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It has not been proven yet. Reliable sources almost always refer to matters of fact that have yet to be determined by courts as alleged. Wikipedia editors are not allowed to weigh evidence and determine facts and instead rely on what reliable sources report. TFD (talk) 20:16, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Andy Ngo is clearly a journalist or citizen journalist
The lead already calls him a journalist. Just not in the first sentence. No action required.
The opening sentence reads "Andy Cuong Ngo is an American right-wing social media influencer, who is known for covering and video-recording demonstrators." "Influencer" is not a common English word but rather a modern slang term. In fact the hyperlink in this article to "influencer" in the first sentence of this article, redirects to "Internet Celebrity". Such a slang term is not encyclopedic.
Going back in time this article described Ngo originally as a journalist, then at some point "an American right-wing journalist, author, and social media influencer", then at some point, "right-wing author and social media influencer", then at some point "right-wing social media influencer". The opening sentence has piece by piece trimmed the more respectworthy occupations of journalist and author from his description, leaving only "social media 'influencer'". Clearly there is fishy business going on in this padlocked article. Even putting all the fishy business to the side, "influencer" is not a plain English word, and its referent is not at all clear.120.88.155.223 (talk) 18:44, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Influencer is as much a common/plain English word as respectworthy is (respectworthy is archaic, you will only find it used once in the entire corpus of wikipedia... influencer is used tens of thousands of times). Horse Eye's Back (talk) 18:55, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
